March 2009
The International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam 2009 in collaboration with Indonesian Institute of Architects Jakarta Chapter, announced an idea competition on the theme of "gotong royong city" in the context of the extended metropolitan region of Jakarta.
Three winning entries will be selected by an international jury for exhibition in the IABR 2009 and awarded prizes totaling 7,000 Euros.
The IABR is now well-established as one of the world's premiere sites for critical, creative and progressive thinking on architecture and urbanism.
The IABR aims to "explore to what extent architects, with their knowledge, skills, and imaginative powers, can contribute to solving urgent problems in contemporary society."
It therefore challenges the design disciplines, using the specific expertise of architecture, to conduct "research by design" and to develop concrete proposals, based on the Biennale's theme.
The competition is open to all professionals and students in architecture, urban design and related disciplines.
